ROMANCE 0F HARDWARE RELATED TO ROTARIANS tContinued from page 1) f ui job. We today enjoy a position in inclustry second ta no other Uine af endeavour. The hardware busi- ness takes in a great f ield, cavering everytbing that is net assignable ta any other specific line of business. At the beginning of the 19th century it cbiefhy meant mechanics' tools, builders' hardware, and ail smal articles made of metal that are pat- ented and used in the construction o! bouses, as wehh as tools of mecb- anics' trades and professional men. At this tinie aise, the method of sehhmng hardware was vastly di.ffer- ent tban it is today. Travelling was bard and slow, sa the consumer fre- qiuenthy bougbt bis hardware at tbe nearest store and the disphay of merchandise did nlot play se large a part as it daes todaY. The bardware business simplifies abar, it ecanamizes the time of tbe housewif e, it covers ai that could be classed as bouse furnisbing goods feor the kitchen and dining room ser- vice, the product of the tin sbop, and stamped ware manufactures, as well as tin plate, sheet iran, f ence wire. etc. It bas witbin its range, ai unes of sporting goods, bath in- door and out. Recently the manufacture of eh- ectric appiances bas largely utilized hardware dstributing channels. The paint industry bas for many years looked ta the bardware mer- chant ta educate the consumner as ta the value of home improvement and preservation. Sa witbout enumer- ating many of the important lies it is flot uncommon for a large job- bmng bouse ta offer ta the retailer 50.000 kinds and sizes of articles. The hardware business, as I con- strue it fram f acts se generously contributed by my friends, appears distinctly Canadian. In England hardware merchants are known as iran Mangers, and as a profession we are most bonest about aur caîl- ing. We admit ta everyone that ta make an bonest living we bave ta sell hardware and "steel." In early colonial history ai sup- plies wene brougbt f rom the mother countries in Europe. As the country became settled and people establish- ed tbemselves in communities and colonies assumed a definite shape, there set up the trades ta do spec- if ic wank or make specific commod- ities. whicb ini frontier i! e was done by the frontiersman bimself. Sa, witb the village blacksmitb estab- lisbed. we bave the foundation of the Canadian hardware manufact- urer. Here were made the bars for doors, tools and implements for ag- riculture. This led ta funther devel- opment as the colonies progressed and became more f irmnly establisbed and populated. This development was necessary owing ta isolated lo- cations of the colonies. and the find- ing of coal and minerais in great abundance at once gave rise ta the beginning of manufacture. The formative period of aur bis- tory does net give many details con- cerning this subject. Small town manufacturers grew up ta supply local demands. but by fan the great- est part o! the manufactured goads were imported. However, men's minds were bent on tbe establisb- ment a! a stable government and as soon as this was accomplisbed tae some extent, they turned their at- 1 tention ta the development o! com- mence and manufacture. In this period we find that as the East became more populated distri- bution became more expedient. Im- migrants brought their tools with them, the patterns o! whicb were at once copied and impnoved. Earhy Canadian manufacturers bad little encouragement f nom the Canadian people who f avared foreign-made gaods. Prom the viewpoint of the typical importer and jobber the local manufacturer was an intruder in the f ield and be f ound very little encouragement in securing repre- sentatian in the regular agencies o! distribution. Hardware is essentially a business wbicb belongs ta new sections o! tbe country and therefore the distribut- ing bouses must necessarily be lo- cated in newer country. In the East the necesshty bas been fan impravement and enlargement o! this develapment. Sa, as the flow o! population drifted west, distribut- ing bouses were immediately estab- lished in the towns and cities ta supply the dealers in the adjacent territary. In Amenica the total retail sales for 1929 in ail kinds o! stores was aven f ifty billions. In Canada it is estimated that the annual retail sales of hardware are neanly one and a hah! billion dollars. I tried ta obtain information con- cerning tbe number 0f men engaged in the hardware trade but could get no definite figures. However. I wotuld say that more than a bal! million peaple are engaged in some way in the distribution o! hardware School repart for S. S. No. 4, Dan- lington: Entrance-Dotiglas Oke.

Brown presented Mr. and Mrs. Burley with a beautiful basket of flowers given by Mrs. Frank Og- den.
